doc: Add README note about ARM/POWER hangs

As documented in #4563 and #3697, there is an issue on ARM and
POWER platforms when the atomic fifo assembly isn't inlined,
which manifests as a hang.  Document the issue and the
work-around until a proper fix is committed.

- ARM and POWER users may experience intermittent hangs when Open MPI
is compiled with low optimization settings, due to an issue with our
atomic list implementation. We recommend compiling with -O3
optimization, both for performance reasons and to avoid this hang.
